this is so painful to read, i love it github.com/stephenturne...

The gravity would help with your issues with vomit; but I think it’s better to just have vomit floating in zero gravity. Makes it easier to bag it up :-)

Your lavatoric (is that a word) reasons for not going to the moon kinda still apply to aircraft’s IMO :-)

Got tired of copying and pasting plans/msgs between codex and Claude code; built a TUI chat for them to confer with me but also just themselves.

Inflatable space stations - Works in Progress Magazine If we ever want to live in space, we need to work out a way of creating artificial gravity.

I personally felt Lunar Gateway wasn’t the greatest idea.

But did you have an agent read it on your behalf like you would read it; that’s the question. jk.

A static site, where posts are written in markdown, deployed via GitHub is quite a good way to write that might be worth considering.

I like the tighter integration of editing+publishing with Obsidian and its plugins; a much more superior writing experience, especially:

What a terrific event! Ashamed I only learned of it now..

I’ve built a little something that lets you do that (and other things) with voice; requires having your vault in a GitHub repository so that is maybe not ideal?

Mobile link insertion is fiddly on iPhone. Selecting text to fit inside the brackets is imprecise with touch. After text is highlighted, could tapping 🔗 open a small form with separate fields for link text and URL?

A fix for this pls?

xmas request: Posting URLs on mobile could be made more precise; my a form for text and url insertion when someone clicks on 🔗? Currently getting text to fit in the brackets is Too imprecise (at least on iPhones). Happy holidays!

it’s definitely hard; I hadn't even really tried fiction writing before Inkhaven. Surprising what a silly, gamified deadline can make a person do to not be kicked out of a program.

An Inkhaven-style daily deadline of 500-word short story blogging might be a nice idea in this AI age.

1 of my 2 Inkhaven goals was to de-hotify any take (another was to avoid advice-posting); switching to writing dialogue proved helpful.

This would often turn a take into a fiction piece or satire; both felt effective at dissipating heat from a potentially hot take.
